why is it that when we sit down with mohammed and trace on a world map where he was held for 18 months of his life that our fingers still can't draw a straight line from where his plane went and when it left afghanistan. alongside these questions that we continue to ask of the u.s. government, we also ask a lot of our clients. they are the dizzying factual questions that span literally hundreds of ourselves, an attempt to uncover every minute detail from flight length to the air temperature on tarmacs from the color, size, layout to the types of bread and rice that was served, from interpreter's accents to the shape of drinking bottles from prison protocols to toilet types. cell camera positioning, directions between cells, interrogation rooms and so forth. beyond asking our clients to dig through these excruciating memories we also require a lot in regard to the conditions under which they share these details. we ask our clients to trust us even though we cannot guarantee their safety. we ask them to communicate freely even as we explain their phones are wiretapped and the notes in wh
